Getting Ready

For the past few weeks I’ve been gearing up for my first craft show. I’m pretty excited. The other morning I walked into the sewing room and found this little surprise on my sewing machine. Natalie had been doing some ‘decorating’. She just loves to mess around with my sewing machine whenever the mood stikes!

For the craft show I made a few I-spy bags, a bunch of zippy wallets, and a dozen or so sandwich/snack bags. The I-spy bags were pretty time consuming, but really fun to make. I got the trinkets to go inside from High Pie on Etsy. Of course I had to keep two for my girls, although Emily would rather eat the thing than play with it at this point.

I also decided it would be fun to do a free little gift to tuck into each customer’s bag: something sweet, a Halloween eraser (gotta love the dollar spot), and of course a business card.

Do you think it’s fun to give away little freebies? I do! I’m hoping to get my tutorial up on Sunday and maybe a little freebie could be headed your way… stay tuned…
